The launch coincides with the debut of new series from STARZ and BritBox, offering audiences access to STARZ's extensive lineup of premium action, thriller and female-driven programming alongside BritBox's expertly curated selection of classic and contemporary British television.

"We believe this expanded offering adds value for adult audiences seeking prestige, high-quality premium programming and provides an incredibly seamless and low-friction consumer experience."

"It's a transformative time in the industry, but what audiences want remains the same: authentic, bold, exceptional storytelling," said Robert Schildhouse, President, BritBox North America and General Manager, BritBox International. "BritBox is excited to launch its first-ever bundle with STARZ, allowing us to introduce the inimitable qualities of British TV to a new audience."
